Allin (Aspen Institute, Berlin) combines a narrative of the Cold War with a dissection of the fallacies upon which it was based, concentrating on the "second Cold War" that followed the dTtente of the early 1970s, and on Europe. He analyzes the military, political, and economic errors that distorted the American image of Soviet strength, and discusses the roles of Henry Kissinger, Jimmy Carter, and Ronald Reagan.
